رُوما 2

١ 1 لِذَلِكَ أَنْتَ بِلَا عُذْرٍ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنْسَانُ، كُلُّ مَنْ يَدِينُ. لِأَنَّكَ فِي مَا تَدِينُ غَيْرَكَ تَحْكُمُ عَلَى نَفْسِكَ. لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ ٱلَّذِي تَدِينُ تَفْعَلُ تِلْكَ ٱلْأُمُورَ بِعَيْنِهَا!

Therefore you are without excuse, O man, whoever you are who judge. For in that which you judge another, you condemn yourself. For you who judge practice the same things.

٢ 2 وَنَحْنُ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّ دَيْنُونَةَ ٱللهِ هِيَ حَسَبُ ٱلْحَقِّ عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ يَفْعَلُونَ مِثْلَ هَذِهِ.

We know that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who practice such things.

٣ 3 أَفَتَظُنُّ هَذَا أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِنْسَانُ ٱلَّذِي تَدِينُ ٱلَّذِينَ يَفْعَلُونَ مِثْلَ هَذِهِ، وَأَنْتَ تَفْعَلُهَا، أَنَّكَ تَنْجُو مِنْ دَيْنُونَةِ ٱللهِ؟

Do you think this, O man who judges those who practice such things, and do the same, that you will escape the judgment of God?

٤ 4 أَمْ تَسْتَهِينُ بِغِنَى لُطْفِهِ وَإِمْهَالِهِ وَطُولِ أَنَاتِهِ، غَيْرَ عَالِمٍ أَنَّ لُطْفَ ٱللهِ إِنَّمَا يَقْتَادُكَ إِلَى ٱلتَّوْبَةِ؟

Or do you despise the riches of his goodness, forbearance, and patience, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?

٥ 5 وَلَكِنَّكَ مِنْ أَجْلِ قَسَاوَتِكَ وَقَلْبِكَ غَيْرِ ٱلتَّائِبِ، تَذْخَرُ لِنَفْسِكَ غَضَبًا فِي يَوْمِ ٱلْغَضَبِ وَٱسْتِعْلَانِ دَيْنُونَةِ ٱللهِ ٱلْعَادِلَةِ،

But according to your hardness and unrepentant heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath, revelation, and of the righteous judgment of God,

٦ 6 ٱلَّذِي سَيُجَازِي كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ حَسَبَ أَعْمَالِهِ.

who “will pay back to everyone according to their works:”

٧ 7 أَمَّا ٱلَّذِينَ بِصَبْرٍ فِي ٱلْعَمَلِ ٱلصَّالِحِ يَطْلُبُونَ ٱلْمَجْدَ وَٱلْكَرَامَةَ وَٱلْبَقَاءَ، فَبِٱلْحَيَاةِ ٱلْأَبَدِيَّةِ. (aiōnios g166)

to those who by perseverance in well-doing seek for glory, honor, and incorruptibility, eternal life; (aiōnios g166)

٨ 8 وَأَمَّا ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ مِنْ أَهْلِ ٱلتَّحَزُّبِ، وَلَا يُطَاوِعُونَ لِلْحَقِّ بَلْ يُطَاوِعُونَ لِلْإِثْمِ، فَسَخَطٌ وَغَضَبٌ،

but to those who are self-seeking and don’t obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, will be wrath, indignation,

٩ 9 شِدَّةٌ وَضِيقٌ، عَلَى كُلِّ نَفْسِ إِنْسَانٍ يَفْعَلُ ٱلشَّرَّ: ٱلْيَهُودِيِّ أَوَّلًا ثُمَّ ٱلْيُونَانِيِّ.

oppression, and anguish on every soul of man who does evil, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

١٠ 10 وَمَجْدٌ وَكَرَامَةٌ وَسَلَامٌ لِكُلِّ مَنْ يَفْعَلُ ٱلصَّلَاحَ: ٱلْيَهُودِيِّ أَوَّلًا ثُمَّ ٱلْيُونَانِيِّ.

But glory, honor, and peace go to every man who does good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

١١ 11 لِأَنْ لَيْسَ عِنْدَ ٱللهِ مُحَابَاةٌ.

For there is no partiality with God.

١٢ 12 لِأَنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ أَخْطَأَ بِدُونِ ٱلنَّامُوسِ فَبِدُونِ ٱلنَّامُوسِ يَهْلِكُ. وَكُلُّ مَنْ أَخْطَأَ فِي ٱلنَّامُوسِ فَبِٱلنَّامُوسِ يُدَانُ.

For as many as have sinned without the law will also perish without the law. As many as have sinned under the law will be judged by the law.

١٣ 13 لِأَنْ لَيْسَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَسْمَعُونَ ٱلنَّامُوسَ هُمْ أَبْرَارٌ عِنْدَ ٱللهِ، بَلِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَعْمَلُونَ بِٱلنَّامُوسِ هُمْ يُبَرَّرُونَ.

For it isn’t the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law will be justified

١٤ 14 لِأَنَّهُ ٱلْأُمَمُ ٱلَّذِينَ لَيْسَ عِنْدَهُمُ ٱلنَّامُوسُ، مَتَى فَعَلُوا بِٱلطَّبِيعَةِ مَا هُوَ فِي ٱلنَّامُوسِ، فَهَؤُلَاءِ إِذْ لَيْسَ لَهُمُ ٱلنَّامُوسُ هُمْ نَامُوسٌ لِأَنْفُسِهِمِ،

(for when Gentiles who don’t have the law do by nature the things of the law, these, not having the law, are a law to themselves,

١٥ 15 ٱلَّذِينَ يُظْهِرُونَ عَمَلَ ٱلنَّامُوسِ مَكْتُوبًا فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ، شَاهِدًا أَيْضًا ضَمِيرُهُمْ وَأَفْكَارُهُمْ فِيمَا بَيْنَهَا مُشْتَكِيَةً أَوْ مُحْتَجَّةً،

in that they show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience testifying with them, and their thoughts among themselves accusing or else excusing them)

١٦ 16 فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلَّذِي فِيهِ يَدِينُ ٱللهُ سَرَائِرَ ٱلنَّاسِ حَسَبَ إِنْجِيلِي بِيَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ.

in the day when God will judge the secrets of men, according to my Good News, by Yeshua the Messiah.

١٧ 17 هُوَذَا أَنْتَ تُسَمَّى يَهُودِيًّا، وَتَتَّكِلُ عَلَى ٱلنَّامُوسِ، وَتَفْتَخِرُ بِٱللهِ،

Indeed you bear the name of a Jew, rest on the law, glory in God,

١٨ 18 وَتَعْرِفُ مَشِيئَتَهُ، وَتُمَيِّزُ ٱلْأُمُورَ ٱلْمُتَخَالِفَةَ، مُتَعَلِّمًا مِنَ ٱلنَّامُوسِ.

know his will, and approve the things that are excellent, being instructed out of the law,

١٩ 19 وَتَثِقُ أَنَّكَ قَائِدٌ لِلْعُمْيَانِ، وَنُورٌ لِلَّذِينَ فِي ٱلظُّلْمَةِ،

and are confident that you yourself are a guide of the blind, a light to those who are in darkness,

٢٠ 20 وَمُهَذِّبٌ لِلْأَغْبِيَاءِ، وَمُعَلِّمٌ لِلْأَطْفَالِ، وَلَكَ صُورَةُ ٱلْعِلْمِ وَٱلْحَقِّ فِي ٱلنَّامُوسِ.

a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of babies, having in the law the form of knowledge and of the truth.

٢١ 21 فَأَنْتَ إِذًا ٱلَّذِي تُعَلِّمُ غَيْرَكَ، أَلَسْتَ تُعَلِّمُ نَفْسَكَ؟ ٱلَّذِي تَكْرِزُ: أَنْ لَا يُسْرَقَ، أَتَسْرِقُ؟

You therefore who teach another, don’t you teach yourself? You who proclaim that a man shouldn’t steal, do you steal?

٢٢ 22 ٱلَّذِي تَقُولُ: أَنْ لَا يُزْنَى، أَتَزْنِي؟ ٱلَّذِي تَسْتَكْرِهُ ٱلْأَوْثَانَ، أَتَسْرِقُ ٱلْهَيَاكِلَ؟

You who say a man shouldn’t commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples?

٢٣ 23 ٱلَّذِي تَفْتَخِرُ بِٱلنَّامُوسِ، أَبِتَعَدِّي ٱلنَّامُوسِ تُهِينُ ٱللهَ؟

You who glory in the law, do you dishonor God by disobeying the law?

٢٤ 24 لِأَنَّ ٱسْمَ ٱللهِ يُجَدَّفُ عَلَيْهِ بِسَبَبِكُمْ بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ، كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ.

For “the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you,” just as it is written.

٢٥ 25 فَإِنَّ ٱلْخِتَانَ يَنْفَعُ إِنْ عَمِلْتَ بِٱلنَّامُوسِ. وَلَكِنْ إِنْ كُنْتَ مُتَعَدِّيًا ٱلنَّامُوسَ، فَقَدْ صَارَ خِتَانُكَ غُرْلَةً!

For circumcision indeed profits, if you are a doer of the law, but if you are a transgressor of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.

٢٦ 26 إِذًا إِنْ كَانَ ٱلْأَغْرَلُ يَحْفَظُ أَحْكَامَ ٱلنَّامُوسِ، أَفَمَا تُحْسَبُ غُرْلَتُهُ خِتَانًا؟

If therefore the uncircumcised keep the ordinances of the law, won’t his uncircumcision be accounted as circumcision?

٢٧ 27 وَتَكُونُ ٱلْغُرْلَةُ ٱلَّتِي مِنَ ٱلطَّبِيعَةِ، وَهِيَ تُكَمِّلُ ٱلنَّامُوسَ، تَدِينُكَ أَنْتَ ٱلَّذِي فِي ٱلْكِتَابِ وَٱلْخِتَانِ تَتَعَدَّى ٱلنَّامُوسَ؟

Won’t those who are physically uncircumcised, but fulfill the law, judge you, who with the letter and circumcision are a transgressor of the law?

٢٨ 28 لِأَنَّ ٱلْيَهُودِيَّ فِي ٱلظَّاهِرِ لَيْسَ هُوَ يَهُودِيًّا، وَلَا ٱلْخِتَانُ ٱلَّذِي فِي ٱلظَّاهِرِ فِي ٱللَّحْمِ خِتَانًا،

For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, neither is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh;

٢٩ 29 بَلِ ٱلْيَهُودِيُّ فِي ٱلْخَفَاءِ هُوَ ٱلْيَهُودِيُّ، وَخِتَانُ ٱلْقَلْبِ بِٱلرُّوحِ لَا بِٱلْكِتَابِ هُوَ ٱلْخِتَانُ، ٱلَّذِي مَدْحُهُ لَيْسَ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ بَلْ مِنَ ٱللهِ.

but he is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God.
